Skydimo monitor backlights from Aliexpress

[Hummtaro]

Do you people know those Skydimo monitor backlights? I'm just here to tell that those work fine with Hyperion.
I recently got one for my 34" ultrawide monitor and i really like that it connects to a single USB port. No big controller box, no seperate power supply, no wiring hassle.

It only took me some time to figure out the right config.. Controller type is adalight but the hardware LED count needs to be 255 for some reason, even if way less LEDs are present. The 34" version has 71 LEDs total, 41 horizontal and 15 vertical.

Whoever searches the net for compatibility of those Skydimo lights may find this post. 👋

Hi. That's very nice to hear. Can you share the configuration?

LED Controller:
Controller type: adalight
Streaming Protocol: Standard
Hardware LED count: 255

LED Layout:
Top: 41
Left: 15
Right: 15
Input position: 56
Edge Gap: 25%

Color channel adjustments:
White: rgb(255,255,255)
Red: rgb(205,4,3)
Green: rgb(90,255,0)
Blue: rgb(5,10,255)
Cyan: rgb(80,255,205)
Magenta: rgb(255,0,255)
Yellow: rgb(255,255,0)

Thats for the 34" Ultrawide version, for the smaller ones the layout would slightly differ.
The color adjustment is not quite on point but good enough for me. :)
